Multivariate patterns of disrupted sleep longitudinally predict affective vulnerability to psychosis in 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome

22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) contributes dramatically to increased genetic risk for psychopathology, and in particular schizophrenia. Sleep disorders, including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), are also highly prevalent, making 22q11DS a unique model ...

Blunted Glucocorticoid Responsiveness to Stress Causes Behavioral and Biological Alterations That Lead to Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Vulnerability

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Jocelin Grosse, Olivia Zanoletti, Simone Astori, Sophie Elizabeth Walker, Silvia Monari

Background: Understanding why only a subset of trauma-exposed individuals develop posttraumatic stress disorder is critical for advancing clinical strategies. A few behavioral (deficits in fear extinction) and biological (blunted glucocorticoid levels, sma ...

Combining accelerometry with allometry for estimating daily energy expenditure in joules when in-lab calibration is unavailable

Kamiar Aminian, Pritish Chakravarty

Background All behaviour requires energy, and measuring energy expenditure in standard units (joules) is key to linking behaviour to ecological processes. Animal-borne accelerometers are commonly used to infer proxies of energy expenditure, termed 'dynamic ...

Robust tunable acoustic impedance control on electroacoustic resonators for aircraft noise reduction

Maxime Volery

Air traffic noise emissions are responsible for a significant part of the overall environmental noise, especially in the vicinity of airports. Exposure to environmental noise is known to negatively impact health and to be associated with cardiovascular dis ...

Phantom Boarder Relates to Experimentally‐Induced Presence Hallucinations in Parkinson's Disease

Olaf Blanke, Fosco Bernasconi, Jevita Potheegadoo

Phantom boarder (PB) is the sensation that someone uninvited is in the patient's home despite evidence to the contrary. It is mostly reported by patients with neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, dementia with Lewy bodies or Parkinson's ...

Dynamic functional hippocampal markers of residual depressive symptoms in euthymic bipolar disorder

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Julian Gaviria

Objectives: Bipolar disorder (BD) is a severe, chronic, affective disorder characterized by recurrent switching between mood states, psychomotor and cognitive symptoms, which can linger in euthymic states as residual symptoms. Hippocampal alterations may p ...

New ingredients for old recipes

Didier Trono, Filipe Amândio Brandão Sanches Vong Martins, Olga Marie Louise Rosspopoff

The pancreas is an essential organ present in all vertebrates, and human pancreatic agenesis is an extremely rare disorder of largely unknown genetic determinants. A study now demonstrates that a primate-specific regulatory network controlled by the KRAB z ...

Genetic selection for low glucocorticoid responsiveness recapitulates PTSD-related phenotypes: a behavioral, neuroimaging and sleep-physiology study

Silvia Monari

Humans show inter-individual differences in vulnerability to develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following exposure to trauma. Several critical biobehavioral features have been consistently described in PTSD patients, including blunted cortisol l ...

Small Obstacle in a Large Polar Flock

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

We show that arbitrarily large polar flocks are susceptible to the presence of a single small obstacle. In a wide region of parameter space, the obstacle triggers counterpropagating dense bands leading to reversals of the flow. In very large systems, these ...
